Hi everyone,
I've seen from Ford's website and various posts here that the new '07 has 4-wheel independent suspension. I know that independent suspension is a much more complex system than a straight live axle, as well as more expensive to fix if anything breaks. It also plain just "looks funny" from the rear....
Those negatives aside, are there any reasons to prefer independent suspension on the rear instead of a beefier traditional live axle? I truly don't know the answer....so information if appreciated.
Thanks!
